JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jets quarterback derby took an interesting turn Sunday with Tim Tebow being active and Greg McElroy being inactive for their game with the Jaguars.

This comes a week after coach Rex Ryan benched starter Mark Sanchez for McElroy against the Cardinals. McElroy led the Jets to the win, sparking a quarterback controversy. Ryan ultimately decided to stick with Sanchez.

Tebow missed last week with broken ribs and did not play two weeks ago against the Patriots despite being active. He was limited in practice this week. Tebow apparently showed the Jets enough in pregame warmups to warrant being active.

McElroy will go back to holding the clipboard a week after becoming the talk of the town.
